That's all very interesting. I have to point out that the meeting was called for the purposes of hearing our witnesses, and they are here today, so I don't think it's fair to them to have us get into a prolonged discussion on that issue. If there's time at the end of the meeting, then we could certainly deal with it.
I don't disagree with anything that you said, Madame Lavallée, and it would not be a bad idea if we had an opportunity to call the Minister of Justice on this issue; however, we've already decided on a work plan that provides for what we're going to be doing with respect to PIPEDA from now until pretty well the end of February, so if you want to bring another motion or have the committee consider it, please by all means do that.
I also point out that there is the opportunity for the oppositionto ask questions of the ministers in the House of Commons, and one hopes that possibly an answer might be forthcoming, so if you don't mind, I'd like to welcome our witnesses and encourage you to find the appropriate method by which to bring this matter forward.
Go ahead, Monsieur Vincent.
